During truncate each entry in a pagevec is checked to see if it is an
exceptional entry and if so, the shadow entry is cleaned up. This is
potentially expensive as multiple entries for a mapping locks/unlocks the
tree lock. This batches the operation such that any exceptional entries
removed from a pagevec only acquire the mapping tree lock once. The corner
case where this is more expensive is where there is only one exceptional
entry but this is unlikely due to temporal locality and how it affects
LRU ordering. Note that for truncations of small files created recently,
this patch should show no gain because it only batches the handling of
exceptional entries.
